How many Transformers have you acquired in 2021 so far?

[Pinwig]

Ooh, what do you think? I think this is really tight with the Legends one. Could go with either.

[The Doctor]

Kup being tight with himself may be illegal!

-Ralph

[Benn]

Kup is easily the weakest SS I've experienced. He's not really animation model accurate, I think he's too scrawny. I wasn't going to bother, as the TR seemed the better option, but the rest of SS won me over.

I do, however, think he's better than TR, but Legends...? Depends what you want from a Kup. He's got a better vehicle mode, but it's a lot more fiddly to get there.

I don't have the Legends one for a proper comparison, but I suspect he's probably a tad more fun than the SS. It's super close though, he's growing on me as I get used to him.

There's an odd trend with Kup though. Last toy you could pull his head off, this one you can pull all his other limbs off!

FILTH ALARM.

[Pinwig]

It wasn't until I started looking at comparison pics for these figs that I realised Legends Kup has a different head to TR.

[Benn]

Oh, before I forget, the way the shoulders transform mean I suspect this is Not A Toy For Ralph.

Different arms, too!

[Pinwig]

Oh yes! My word. I must get up in the loft later and find this fella for when I open the SS one.

Blurr was the same wasn't he?

[Benn]

Aside from the paint, I believe so. Hot Rodimus got a retooled chest, but I think that was it.

[Slack]

Legends Kup is far better than TR for me, I'd love to have all three in hand to compare but I can't justify 3 Kups right now

[Philip Ayres]

How many modern Kups are there?

[Benn]

Distinct, different?

Four, I think. Generations, TR, Legends, and SS

[Bogatan]

I decided to ditch my TR Kup at some point in the future. SS looks better, even if it sounds fiddly as hell. Ive still got the Orion Pax version of the mould which will do for me. Never noticed the changes to LG Kup though, but then I only realised how improved Hot Rod was after getting the LG one a few months back.

The Generations mould is still a favourite. Ive got 6 different versions of it I think.

[Pinwig]

I remember getting that Legends scale Seaspray that was headless from China, then when I complained I was sent just the head.

[Benn]

I love it. It's great customer service, but also really petty.

[Jim]

I do love that picture!

Wonder if it's the same seller I got my Siege Ratbat and Rumble from - that was encased, still sealed, in carefully cut, perfectly fitting polystyrene wrapped in tape.
